Quellon tried to reform the ways of the ironborn and integrate them with the rest of the Seven Kingdoms by freeing thralls, forbidding most reaving, discouraging salt wives, encouraging marriages with the mainland, and bringing maesters to the Iron Islands.[1]

Family

Quellon had three wives and nine sons, of which only four survived to adulthood. With his first wife, Lady Stonetree, he fathered Harlon, Quenton, and Donel, none of whom survived childhood. With his second wife, Lady Sunderly, Quellon fathered Balon, Euron, Victarion, Urrigon, and Aeron, with all surviving to adulthood with the exception of Urrigon. Quellon's third marriage, this time with Lady Piper, resulted in Robin, who also died as a child.
